I thought the reason for trashing trade agreements and taking a wrecking ball to the Canadian economy with extreme tariffs was because of fentanyl coming from Canada at the border?

Apparently not, says Trump, from his speech at Congress tonight: β€œ... Tariffs are about making America rich again and making America great again”.

By his own words, he has just shown his big lie.

translation for the masses: it's about "making america's rich, richer". he don't give a fk about you or me or anyone else. just those very few at the top (and even then, he don't care about them, either, unless they're giving him a cut or are a pathway to power)

It's true isn't it. MAGAts just want to see other people suffer and be miserable. That's how they feel better about their own shitty lives.

Literally

He's not hurting the people he needs to be hurting.

And they were already saying that in 2019

There's many that do, yes. My mother and stepfather are two such people. They're willing to burn their own country down around them if it means that a few of "them" die first.
